Sorry OH, the rush of blood to the head when I read about the additional expenses banished rational thought. I should have added, as these cunts voted themselves the increase, presumably the results of that vote must be logged somewhere? Recorded in Hansard? I want to check if my MP voted for the increase cos if so, I'll try & get it in the local paper.

I think the British people are getting bored with this tittle-tattle and gossip now.

Ordinary hard-working families are interested in the real issues. When it comes to policies, Gordon Brown is taking decisive action to give real help now, while Cameron would do nothing and is plainly out of his depth.

David Cameron has refused to commit to maintaining child benefit and winter fuel allowances at the same level as the Labour Government.

He has one rule for millionaires and another for parents and pensioners. He can promise a tax giveaway for 3,000 millionaires yet now he won't give a "running commentary" on his plans for millions of middle income parents who receive child benefit, nor millions of pensioners who rely on winter fuel allowance to heat their homes.

He talks of an “age of austerity” but he must answer the question “austerity for who?”

Our party has been in power now for eleven years - something Labour has never come close to achieving before.

And though it’s been tough at times and there are still big challenges to overcome, we can be hugely proud of the progress we have delivered together for the country.

It is easy to forget what Britain was like in 1997 - the NHS on its knees, schools crumbling, crime doubled and millions of families still scarred by unemployment over three million and interest rates still recovering from hitting 15 per cent on Black Wednesday.

And while we know that everything is not perfect now, Britain is, without doubt, a better, more prosperous and fairer place.

Whether rules were broken is yet to be established. Morally speaking there should at the very least be immediate by elections for the worst MPs whatever their stripe.But of course Labour would never agree to this as who's going to vote for a leftwing incompetent sanctimonious freeloading bullshitter now.

Have you got a job? If so do you mind all the money you've paid in tax for the last few years going to pay for things like patio heaters, Plasma TV's and barbecues for these cunts? You'll be working for the next God knows how many years to pay off things like property rennovation costs so the bastards can make a profit on their property speculation. If you want to pay for all that, fair enough, but I don't.

The rules have been broken. Just because the MPs haven't been hauled over the coals for it doesn't make them any less in the shit. They should only claim expenses for things that are "expenses wholly, exclusively and necessarily incurred when staying overnight away from their main UK residence ... for the purposes of performing Parliamentary duties"

40-inch tellys are not neccessary.

£9,000 kitchens are not neccessary.

£3000 for a new boiler because you cannot work the cold tap is not neccessary.

Flipping your second home for profit is not neccessary.

£400 for food while Parliament isn't even sitting is not neccessary.

All the expenses claimed by Ministers in grace and favour homes are by default, unneccessary.

What we are exercised about is cynical personal enrichment. Even some of the relatively small claims point to a utter contempt for the taxpayer and a lack of decency.

Please find enclosed a T-shirt referring to your predecessor and 5p. As your recent Budget is taking the shirts off our backs, I thought I’d send you mine, to save you the trouble of coming to collect it. I chose to send the T-shirt rather than a proper shirt as it’s now out of date so I don’t have any further use for it.

I understand that your correct title is The Right Honourable Gordon Brown, PM – however, as this would be a complete misnomer I have omitted it.

The 5p is included as a contribution towards the repair of your much vaunted Moral Compass. Bearing in mind the recent Budget, the way you have handled the Gurkhas and the way you have dealt with MPs leaked expenses (‘ it’s all the fault of the System’ – yeah, right the System has been out there claiming payment for cleaners), it obviously is very badly broken.

I have only included 5p as I’m sure you will be able to claim the rest of the cost on expenses – after all, you seem to have been able to claim everything else you want that way.

If you really want to find out how the country regards you, you may like to consider the two petitions currently open on your own No 10 Website, one asking you to resign, the other asking you to remain. Resign 55,985, remain 70 – not even your own MPs have voted for you (fast forward to 3 line Whip on signing the petition) & some of the names, even of such a low number as 70 are suspect – ‘A. Sandwich-Short’, ‘Spense S Fiddler’, ‘Phil Mitroff’, ‘W. Mittie’ – ‘Walter’ by any chance?

Wishing you the future you deserve,

Yetta Nother Ex-Labour Voter"============================BTW, I didn't bother to include the T-Shirt - a 'B******* to Blair' one as I couldn't find it when I went looking for it.

They are all pig shite swine. Where is the mass demo we need to hang these fuckers then we can sell all their fucking houses and take back all the fucking money they have robbed form us and this will help pay the national debt they have shafted us with. Fuck that hanging is to good for them bury them alive the bastards!

Harman, Taxpayer pounds is a no-nonsense issue and for you to just disregard it as such makes you sound like one of those troughing MPs.

Furthermore, I do pay my taxes which by the way the fucking government keep tinkering with making it impossible for people to LIVE IN PEACE.

Businesses dont know where they stand anymore. The whole tax system is in disrepute because of the government.

In basic management courses, if you care to look this up, it states that "Never ask your employee to do something you are not willing to do yourself" - they train managers to have this ethos to get the best out of people.

So, need I state the fucking obvious that these MPs ARE making us do one thing and doing the opposite themselves. They are deceitful in the extreme and you fucking know it!

"It is easy to forget what Britain was like in 1997 - the NHS on its knees, schools crumbling, crime doubled and millions of families still scarred by unemployment over three million and interest rates still recovering from hitting 15 per cent on Black Wednesday."

Just for interest ms pride who is the money is theirs to use and who is this goverment as far as I remember we voted for an mp who is supposed to take our local voices to Parliament that's where our input ends,all we have is local mp's who takes their wallet/handbag to Pariament and fills it up and only seems to hear voices from a group we call a political party.

Thanks for you input by the way it's helped to make my mind up how I will use the only thing that's left from a Parliamentry democracy that we used to have and that's my vote as an ex Labour supporter now a B-N-P voter.

Harman_Pride - just fuck off you boring, intellectually challenged, little fart! Particularly fuck off if you think you've got any right to tell anyone else what to do or what to think - you haven't, so go & try playing the bully elsewhere. Somehow I have this picture of you as a weasely Billy-No-Mates who has proven to be singularly unattractive to the opposite sex - and to the gay members of your own sex - which naturally attracts you to Labour - the Party of Physical Unattractiveness - in the desperate hopes of getting a shag - from anyone or anything (may I suggest you invest in a large brown paper bag - I believe they work wonders). However much you're being paid to act as a Troll it's far too much. Your arguments have as many holes as a sieve - only a very thick NuLabour supporter would agree with them so why don't you troll on over to LabourLost & meet like minded 'intellectuals'?

Incidentally, I've added to your quote:

"In Defeat, Malice.

In Victory - Revenge!"

In NuLabour - Bullshit.

Oh, and I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for victory if I were you - on the other hand......

O/H on a serious note regarding the pigs. If that would cause you problems why not travel to Westminister by tractor. Use 664 one for each MP. That would bring the are to a standstill?. Worth a thought.

congratulations harman pride......you have won the cunt of the year award! and it is only May!

1/what i earn is mine2/not 1 single twat in the hoc has ever done anything positive for me.3/ derek diaper has less talent than a bucket of shit-but smells worse!4/ you are in the minority so why don't you fuck off to n.korea instead of us?

So they get £170k on expenses - tax free, subsidised grub & booze, minimum £63k which is taxed a bit, can flout capital gains tax - these cunts are gonna be on £250k net per annum with 15 weeks holiday and 3.5 day weeks if the mother fucking failed abortions turn up. And that's before all the bribes they take. Utter, utter cunts.

Well, fuck me, there was me thinking it showed up 95% of the people who claim to be representing us as greedy troughers when all along it's just a slight blip in the 'trust' between the people we voted for and the people who voted them in.

One can only assume that you like being arse-raped by your politicians...I wonder if you are down as an 'expense'?

Harmon_ Pride , Yes they are within the rules , however the rules were drawn up and voted on by themselves .These rules apply only to MPs and no-one else , were is the equality in that ,they are unethical and corrupt . You try to defend the illogical !!

Please,please keep up that attitude. The one good thing that will come out of this will be the total demise of the labour party. I can truly start to believe that my children and I may never see another labour government in our lifetime. You really dont know how good that feels.

To be governed is to be watched, inspected, spied upon, directed, law-driven, numbered, regulated, enrolled, indoctrinated, preached at, controlled, checked, estimated, valued, censured, commanded, by creatures who have neither the right nor the wisdom nor the virtue to do so. To be governed is to be at every operation, at every transaction noted, registered, counted, taxed, stamped, measured, numbered, assessed, licensed, authorized, admonished, prevented, forbidden, reformed, corrected, punished. It is, under pretext of public utility, and in the name of the general interest, to be placed under contribution, drilled, fleeced, exploited, monopolized, extorted from, squeezed, hoaxed, robbed; then, at the slightest resistance, the first word of complaint, to be repressed, fined, vilified, harassed, hunted down, abused, clubbed, disarmed, bound, choked, imprisoned, judged, condemned, shot, deported, sacrificed, sold, betrayed; and to crown all, mocked, ridiculed, derided, outraged, dishonoured. That is government; that is it's justice; that is its morality.
